O-Ring and Filter lubrication
Whenever dismantling any filter or hose pipe take care not to
pinch the o-rings fitted to them. When replacing the pipe fitting,
smear the o-ring with oil or grease so that it falls easily into place
in its groove.
Gearbox lubrication
The gearbox has a sight gauge that should be checked regularly
and the oil should be changed every 250 hours.
The gearbox contains 1 litre of SAE-20/50 multigrade oil

Item 1 - Sight Gauge

Item 2 - Oil Fill
•
Item 3 - Oil Drain Plug
To allow for easy access when filling the gearbox with oil, a remote
filling tube is fitted fron the fill point on top of the gearbox and
extends to the boom centre frame where it has a capped fitting in
an easily accessible area.
Pump Maintenance
On HARDI 363 pumps, grease the pump, every 50 working hours or
once a month, through the grease nipple situated on the end of
the input shaft. The grease goes along the grooves in the shaft to
reach the crankcase where it is distributed around bearings,
conrods, etc.
AR high pressure series pumps use wet sump lubrication. It is
recommended to check oil level before starting and change oil
after the first 50 hours of operation then regularly at 500 hour
intervals with SAE 30W oil. For servicing and troubleshooting
please refer to AR Pumps documentation or their website.
